The Beginning
From Ethiopia, With Love
Inspired by the traditional African “love grass” Eragrostis tef, that has supported communities for over 5,000 years, our restaurant serves up the soulful and vibrant flavors of Ethiopia to the heart of the UAE.
What makes us stand out is our commitment to the craft of real Injera. Modern shortcuts may combine grains, but our kitchen bakes 100% pure Teff Injera fresh daily. Our signature sourdough flatbread is naturally gluten free, nutrient dense and preservative free — the perfect canvas for our rich culinary heritage.
Our menu celebrates diversity and inclusion, offering something for every palate. From traditional meat stews like Doro Wot and Tibs, to our vegan fasting platters (Beyaynetu), we prepare each dish with clean, wholesome ingredients and recipes passed down through generations.
At Love Grass, our love for Teff goes beyond our signature Injera and savory dishes. We also make innovative fine desserts with Teff as the main ingredient, giving a modern twist to this ancient Ethiopian grain. Our desserts include Teff Cake and Teff Berry Delight (a fluffy Teff based cake with colorful fruits that give a perfectly balanced and refreshing sweetness), Teff Cake Slice (a light and fluffy Teff cake with a hint of cinnamon), and Love Bite (a light and fluffy Teff cake with a hint of cinnamon and vanilla).
Love Grass is more than a meal, it’s an invitation to connect. Our guests gather around a beautiful colorful shared platter to experience the ancient tradition of communal eating where food is broken together, stories are shared and every guest is treated like family. Come into our home in Abu Hail and experience a cleaner, healthier and truly authentic taste of Ethiopia.
